and so one of the greatissi and happy and unexpected smsurprises of this cycle is how many interesting people are running around the country., y people something to say that isn t necessarily about them. people who have interests beyond just accumulating country more power. jd vance and ohio kerry, blake a and blake masters in arizona,nd joe kent in washington state. dr. oz in pennsylvania. none of these people has been in politics before. all of them seem tobefore. be listening to voters listing, not just talkingthey a. all coazingly, all of them could win on november eight . and if they do, that s a huge problem for the democratic dis party and for the people iasnne charge. more broadly, it s a potential thing tdisaster. it s one thing to elect mitc more mitch mcconnell s team. republicanls, tames know what ts are. the first rule, of course,the f is you must lose. bu people like that will play along as they faithfully have for decades. but what happe would happen ifre someo
